  Solid Vehicle AND Value - 2005 Suzuki XL-7
  By Paul - December 27 - 9:03 am

  2003 LX_7 Limited 4x4. Well constructed with thoughtfulness and care in detail execution. Solid in feel, construction, handling and performance. Well appointed and laid out interior. No gizmos: everything you need is there where you need it ... and it all works! Very smooth engine provides steady push rather than neck-snapping, wheel-spinning antics. Smoothest automatic transmission Ive ever experienced in a moderately priced vehicle. 2 to 4 wheel drive shift on the fly works impecibly. Best truck-based mid-size SUV road handling in its class. Great road handler as well as city parker. Tremedous cargo and people volume, though more of one means you trade-off on one for the other.

  Tired of Lemons / This is the BestTthing Yet - 2005 Suzuki XL-7
  By Great SUV - August 13 - 9:00 am

  I bough my Suzuki XL-7 a year a go. Having purchased many new vehicles in the past I started buying used, but I still had the itch for a new one. I made a U-turn into a Suzuki dealer . My XL-7 is the best vehicle Ive owned. Ive seen my dealer for oil changes only, it hasnt had any problems or needed any adjustments. This vehicle is the very best buy for your money, period

  Womans view point - 2005 Suzuki XL-7
  By C Porter - June 4 - 7:26 am

  I enjoy how it handles and the interior storage for five person seating. I was very pleased with the space and comfort on long trips. The seats are firm, providing good support for the legs, seat and back on short as well as distance trips. I was pleased with braking in emergency conditions.

  A reliable car - 2005 Suzuki XL-7
  By Amrit - October 10 - 6:13 am

  The 2005 Suzuki Xl-7 has a more modern design than the 03 or older. One of the reasons that I bought this car was because I also own a Suzuki Aerio in which I did not have any problems. I bought the XL-7 because the price is so much cheaper than a lot of other suvs out there on the road. The woodgrain on the dashboard adds a nice touch to the interior which is standard on every XL- 7 model. The car is easy and fun to drive. The third row seating comes very handy. Suzukis powertrain warranty (7 year/100,000 miles) makes you worry- free.

  Best Kept Secret - 2005 Suzuki XL-7
  By Great Truck - July 25 - 7:53 am

  Best kept SUV secret. Great quality and perfect for anyone looking for a mid size suv. Just enough room. If you dont need seven passenger seating skip the third row. Great value.

  Flawless Reliability - 2005 Suzuki XL-7
  By studiocraft1 - October 8 - 7:28 am

  Bought this car w/25000 miles on it, it has been perfect. I have Ex III model, all options ever made for this chassis. 4x4 is awesome, having the LOW range makes it a tru truck, that is why it rides a bit rough, dont care. I get 20mpg in the city and about 23hiway. How is that pooe mileage? It does weigh 3700 lbs, I can tow my boat and quad, have no issue w/engine power, it is quick and responsive. Leather is nice, a bit cramped sometimes. Now 78k, nothing done but tires, not even brakes!

  Off-Roading Queen - 2005 Suzuki XL-7
  By salah el asmaay - May 14 - 1:30 am

  My experience with the 2005 Suzuki XL-7 has been positive since the start. I was able to negotiate $4,500 of its MSRP which was already low, using a $2,000 suzuki rebate and a $2,000 down payment match from dealer. I paid only $20,450 for a 2005 LX-4WD 7 seats with an automatic transmission. I was mainly interested in this truck because of to my loyality to its sport bike line of products, which are the best in the industry. I went on to discover that the quality engineering and stylish design of Suzukis bikes carries over to its SUVs. After folding the two back seats, I had enough cargo space to move everything that I needed for my dorm room. This truck Drives just like a luxury sedan with off-road capability.

  Cool - 2005 Suzuki XL-7
  By US Family Robinson - December 9 - 6:33 am

  We traded our truck, which was roomy, powerful, and comfy for our xl-7. The truck also stayed thirsty not to mention the warranty was long gone. The Suzuki had all the things we were looking for and then some. We went shopping on the basis of warranty and service foremost. We tried the Kiabut the Suzuki won out with more room. We also got the 3rd row seat. The suzuki is just overloaded with options that came with it standard, where others, these cost a consumer extra. I agree that the seating in the XL-7 is cramped, but we knew this from the get go and we love that we can fold the seats down for cargo space. Our XL-7 isnt very old but we love it.
